the #UK's Defence Minister @BWallaceMP has a message for #Russia and its people after yesterday's liberation of #Kherson and the whole region east of the River Dnipro.
The emotional de-occupation of #Kherson is just the start of a new chapter and some difficult decisions now need to be taken.
#Ukraine says it fears a big missile attack during the G20 summit next week. While places like #Mariupol and #Crimea now in range for Ukraine's artillery
A better video has emerged of the destruction of the #Antonivskyi bridge in #Kherson.
CCTV shows the moment of the enormous blast which finally brought down a section of the main route across the river Dnipro
Apologies. Earlier I posted video of damage to a bridge in #Kherson. It was of course not the #Antonivskyi but the the bridge over the #NovaKakhovka dam.
Any bridges in the region, even if already damaged by #Ukraine shelling, were brought down when #Russia fled.
Refugees from #Kherson have been celebrating all over the world - from near and far.
I know people who immediately moved to #Odesa, not that far away. This morning many gathered outside the world famous opera house in the port city.
I have good news - the stuff we bought with your donations crossed the border from Poland to #Ukraine late last night.
Hopefully it will arrive at the front line tomorrow.
You can see how much clothing etc. we got - the document is the border/customs document.
More gifts left behind by #Russia when they evacuated #Kherson oblast.
The Sun's journalists were shown this warehouse in #Blahodatne (RU: #Blagodatnoe) in the north of the territory, near the regional border with #Mykolaiv.
Sunday 19 January is Day 1061 of #Russia's all-out war in #Ukraine. We are also just 2 weeks away from the 4,000th day since #Moscow's initial invasion with the start of its illegal takeover of #Crimea
Welcome to another daily thread with all the news you need in one place 💙💛
Thankfully a quieter start to Sunday than yesterday, which means I get a later start today.
Saturday was all about #Russia's double ballistic attack which brought death to 2 #Ukraine cities.
Catch up on that and all yesterday's stories here⬇️
Hello on Day 1054 of #Russia's terrorist campaign in #Ukraine.
I've been working for a while today, tidying up loose ends, but a late start to the daily thread - the only feed you need for all the important news and analysis.
So a lot to catch up on, let's go again!
Normally I pin the first post of the thread on my profile page, but for another 24 hours the pinned item is about the auction for a truly unique item - please check it out
So, it's even more important I post a link back to yesterday's thread. Here we are
Christmas Day 2024. Day 1036 of the war inflicted on #Ukraine. The third Christmas for Ukrainian people to suffer. Empty chairs at the dinner table, that will never be filled again. Others at the frontline fighting for their lives and the life of the country.
It's the daily🧵
So Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah to those celebrating.
A special shout out too, to those working this special day. Also working today, emergency workers in #Ukraine after another massive missile attack
Day 1001 of #Russia's all out war in #Ukraine.
The genocide & attempt to wipe its neighbour from the map continues, but #Putin's increasingly desperate.
Welcome to another daily🧵
Breaking news already early this Wednesday morning.
All the news, all day (and night) every day.
Tuesday 19 November was always going to be special. Day 1,000 and what a day it proved.
Record likes and retweets, thanks to everyone who revived my faith in the T witter audience🫂
1/2 First the breaking news - and a third attack of the night inside #Russia.
At the end of yesterday's thread you may have read of the drone attacks on #Voronezh and #Belgorod regions. Well now it's become clear that #Novgorod has also been attacked by #Ukraine's UAVs..
Here's the link back to all Monday's news.
More heinous attacks. On its day of mourning, #Sumy was hit again just as the day ended, and #Odesa lost another ten residents.
Let me start today's news in #Sumy, because sadly the number of killed + injured after #Russia's strike have both increased.
An 11th person died during the night while 89 people required medical treatment. Medics, rescuers, psychologists and volunteers worked through the night.
